HC Deb 28 June 1984 vol 62 c498W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he intends to implement the recommendations of the report on "UK Minerals Technology Market Study" which was made available to his Department on 15 January 1983.

Mr. Trippier

The study contained conclusions and recommendations which are confidential to the Department, the relevant requirements board and its committee. The Department took further advice from the committee and decided that some follow-up work is required. Arrangements are in hand for this to be done by the Mineral Industry Research Organisation—MIRO. Implementation of specific recommedations of the study will await the outcome of this follow-up work.
